Just what do some Uringans get up to in the dark?
Well for a few it was the NSW Night Championships held at UWS Penrith campus.
The nights attract only a small but quality field of orienteers who don a variety of lights to head out into the bush in search of controls. With 5 first placings a second and a third Uringans proved that they were great operators in the dark!

To entice people to night orienteering I believe that there needs to be a change in the classes and that they be based on Lumens ( Wattages) of their lights.
